Smoked Paprika

Smoked Paprika is a ground red pepper spice commonly used in Spanish, Hungarian and many Mediterranean cuisines for its warm, smoky flavor and vibrant color. It is typically made from dried, smoked red peppers and used to season stews, rubs, marinades and sauces. Nutritionally, smoked paprika is a concentrated source of micronutrients for its weight; it is particularly notable for its vitamin A content (2700 ug RAE per 100g) and also provides dietary fiber and iron in powdered form. Because spices are used in small amounts, their contribution to daily calories is minimal but their micronutrient and flavor impact can be meaningful. From a health perspective, smoked paprika brings antioxidant carotenoids and polyphenol-like compounds that contribute to its protective, anti-inflammatory properties, and it can boost the nutrient and flavor profile of dishes without adding much salt or fat.
